A history of helping people

Unlike some loan companies, Provident have been around for over a century. We were founded in 1880 by Joshua Waddilove, who wanted to help working families provide for themselves.

Over the years, we've helped hundreds of thousands of people when they needed a hand.

A home credit loan from Provident will require a Provident Representative to discuss your income, outgoings and other financial commitments. Available to UK residents aged 18 and over. Written quotations are available on request. Prices may vary in Northern Ireland.
